Chapter 339 Return to the North
Through this incident, he was more certain that the proprietress held an extraordinary importance in Mr. Huo's heart.
The assistant quickly cleaned himself up and hurried upstairs.
When I entered the boss's wine room, the boss's wife was no longer there. I only saw the boss sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed. Although he looked haggard, his noble aura was still beyond reach and made people feel awe.
The assistant hurried over and called out respectfully, "Boss Huo."
To be honest, he was very nervous at this moment, thinking that Mr. Huo was going to settle the score with him.
Without waiting for Mr. Huo to speak, he quickly defended himself: "Mr. Huo, I didn't take the initiative to contact Mrs. Huo. She called to ask about your situation. I really dare not not answer. Please check it clearly!"
"Did I tell you that I called you here for this matter?" Huo Xilin raised his eyebrows. Although he asked his assistant seriously, it could be seen that he was in a good mood.
The assistant was stunned for a moment, looking at his boss in a daze.
If it’s not about this matter, then what is it about?
His job is to serve his boss well. Seeing that his boss is in a good mood, he should be assigned some work.
If she didn't have a smart mind, she wouldn't be qualified to stay with Huo Xilin for so many years.
He has many assistants around him, but the one who is the least troublesome is the one in front of him.
After figuring out the key to the problem, he quickly asked, "Boss Huo, if you need me to do anything, just tell me!"
Huo Xilin waved at him, and the assistant immediately understood what he meant. He lowered his head and tried to get closer to his president.
Huo Xilin said a few words in a low voice. Although his voice was low, the assistant heard every word.
"Don't worry, Mr. Huo, I will investigate it as soon as possible!"
"No one should be allowed to know about this matter, and no traces should be left during the investigation!" Huo Xilin said seriously.
"yes!"
Huo Xilin waved his hand, signaling his assistant that he could leave.
When the assistant walked to the door, Huo Xilin hurriedly stopped him again: "By the way, book me a ticket back to the north."
"Immediately?" the assistant asked.
Huo Xilin smelled the alcohol on his body. Today happened to be the weekend, and he would meet his son when he went back.
So he said, "Tonight."
"Okay, Mr. Huo!" After the assistant left, Huo Xilin got up and returned to Bishui Hua Ting.
He guessed that Xu Qingsui must not be at home during this period of time.
As a result, when they went back, the two inevitably met.
Huo Xilin was slightly surprised and asked, "You didn't go to work today?"
"I came back to get some things. I have an appointment to talk to Senior Brother Xu in the afternoon."
Huo Xilin nodded and told her that he was leaving: "I have a flight tonight, back to the north, when are you going to leave? I can book a return ticket."
Although he said that, Xu Qingsui could still hear the expectation hidden in his words.
He always seemed to act pitiful in front of her, and this always made Xu Qingsui particularly soft-hearted.
"I'll tell you when the time comes. I haven't decided yet."
"Okay." Huo Xilin nodded: "You didn't get enough rest last night, why don't you rest for a while? I'll take a shower and prepare lunch. I'll call you when I'm ready."
Xu Qingsui wanted to refuse, but when he met his expectant eyes, he couldn't say the words of refusal.
And she was indeed very sleepy, and had originally planned to come back and rest for a while. She had to discuss things with Senior Brother Xu in the afternoon, so she had to stay in good condition.
"Thank you for your hard work." Xu Qingsui said to Huo Xilin and returned to his room.
In order not to disturb her rest, Huo Xilin chose to go to Xu Youyou's room to take a shower. After coming out, he felt refreshed.
The feeling of being drunk is really uncomfortable. When I just woke up, I felt dizzy and disoriented.
I guess it also left a bad impression on Xu Qingsui?
I really can't drink anymore from now on, but if she is not by my side, how can I get through those long nights?
Looking at himself in the mirror, his features are very strong and he has long lost the baby fat of his childhood. Only between his eyebrows and eyes can you still vaguely see the shadow of his childhood.
Time changes more than just a person's appearance.
Xu Qingsui was awakened by the sound of an alarm clock. When she woke up, she was the only one in the room, and Huo Xilin's voice was long gone.
He had set the alarm in case she overslept and missed lunch and important things in the afternoon.
He had already prepared the food and placed it in the kitchen. When she woke up, she could just heat it up in the microwave and eat it.
He still had the habit of telling her these things by writing notes, and after reading each note, Xu Qingsui would fold it up out of habit and put it in his bag.
The bag containing the note was getting bigger and bigger and soon it would be full.
Maybe she should get a bigger bag to put the notes in, but when she thought about the fact that they would soon be living apart, she probably wouldn't need it.
Xu Qingsui looked at the meals prepared by Huo Xilin in the kitchen. Every dish was made according to her favorite taste and the amount of care put into it was self-evident.
She simply heated it up in the microwave and carefully ate every dish alone, even though she obviously couldn't eat any more by the end.
Humans are particularly strange creatures. It is only when they are very close to losing something that they realize how precious something that was once ordinary is.
She still remembered the first time she ate the meal that Huo Xilin cooked for her. It was on the top floor of Huo’s Group, in his lounge. She was really surprised at that time that he, as a big CEO, could actually cook, and the food he cooked was so delicious.
But later, as he cooked more often, she got used to it, and the shock and surprise gradually disappeared with habit.
But at this moment, this habit was like a bottomless black hole, sucking her tightly, leaving her with nowhere to hide or escape.
It felt like a huge rock was pressing down on his heart, making Xu Qingsui feel suffocated.
Before she could swallow the food in her mouth, tears started to fall uncontrollably. She couldn't help but lie on the table and cry.
If I had known it would be so painful, I would have never met you.
In the afternoon, I finished discussing things with Xu Wanshan.
Xu Wanshan invited her to have dinner together, but Xu Qingsui was not in the mood and just made an excuse, "Brother, I have other things to deal with. I can't treat you to dinner. Let's do it another day."
Xu Wanshan is an easy-going person who never forces others. He is especially considerate. Although things went smoothly when he talked with Xu Qingsui today, he was still keenly aware that she was in a bad mood.
"Well, your cold is almost healed, right?" he asked casually.
